Green Park
.
Laid out in 1668, Green Park is not a particularly landscaped park, but it makes a pleasant contrast to the bustle of Piccadilly.
In it's past it was less serene, being the site for many a duel. The Tuburn river used to cross the park but has now been re-routed underground, although it is said that you can still hear the water gurgling past, in places.With its fifty-three acres, mainly laid out in grass with avenues of trees, today Green Park is used as a shortcut by foot from Piccadilly to Buckingham Palace.
Nearest Underground (Tube) Station: Green Park.
